In its magical Cotswold valley setting, Owlpen is surely one of the most romantic places in England. For nearly 40 years, nine home-from-home Cotswold holiday cottages have delighted guests who have a sense of history and 'a sense of place'.

A favourite with smaller families and dog walkers, this roomy modern farmhouse cottage is purpose-designed for holiday use. It has the advantage of being easy to run, but is built in traditional Cotswold style, with gable windows. Adjoining Manor Farm (which sleeps 4) and built to the same high specifications, it can be let along with that to provide comfortable family accommodation for up to nine, making it a favourite for family reunions.

The house stands in a splendid raised position commanding distant views over Owlpen's gently sloping valley and rich woods. The gardens are surrounded by pasture fields.There is an interconnecting door to Manor Farm cottage in the sitting room, which can be opened up to make it into one large cottage for larger parties.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms - one big double room with king-sized bed, one twin, and a third small bedroom for a nanny or a child, with a single bed and sloping roof. There is also an airy bathroom with a bath and overbath shower.
